Well revolution has finished it's filming for the season and it left us with a cliffhanger. I do wonder if it will come back, I think that it did create enough characters and character interaction to at least stimulate us to want to see what happens now that they have four helicopters ready to shoot 30 or 50 caliber guns at the gang.

The trouble is though we've all seen better shows not come back, so it will be interesting if this one does. I think though that it's going to be a competitor of falling skies although different networks of course but I think it is NBC's version of falling skies and we will see how that works out for everybody.

After all we still have 11 or 10 amulets left to be found, there is a lot of show ahead they just have to keep it interesting and if they do biotin for another half season and that will definitely be the make or break point if they succeed in ratings.

NBC has a bad habit of killing shows before giving them a chance. i like this one so i hope it continues. if they kill it, maybe syfy or one of the others will pick it up.

.....The greatest changes occur in their country without their cooperation. They are not even aware of precisely what has taken place. They suspect it; they have heard of the event by chance. More than that, they are unconcerned with the fortunes of their village, the safety of their streets, the fate of their church and its vestry. They think that such things have nothing to do with them, that they belong to a powerful stranger called the government. They enjoy these goods as tenants, without a sense of ownership, and never give a thought to how they might be improved.....

My big problem with the choppers is after all these years, the fuel would be bad, carbs gummed up, and batteries would be long dead and dry. I guess that is just my weird thinking. But I have been watching the show so they have me hooked.

mentioned the things that spoil it for me and Allan summed it up good with the helicopters at the ready and not even sputtering at 15 year old fuel, etc..

It is sad that you need to let issues like these go by or you'd flip the channel, but although it is far from great TV, it is entertaining enough. I was without power for 8 days during Sandy, we had a taste of a world without electricity, although we had my C Crane radio to entertain and inform us. It was Sandy that made up my mind to get the iPhone 5, even interrupted communications was better than none.

Still awaiting Fallen Skies (which I don't think will see another season after this next one, but still a good show)

I'm just wondering what shows have be been cancelled and because it was such a long time between seasons I forgot all about them - I know shows like the Glades and other cable series cop-shows have come and gone.

QUESTION though... What show (now defunct) would you like to come back as a 2 hour show (or mini-series) to see how the characters are doing? I've always been shocked that Star trek Voyager never had a movie after it was over - where next generation did well at the box-office. And, are there any TV shows you would pay to see at the movies if they made it??

falling skies is good because it's a different twist on an old story + it has a good cast. there's anew one coming out on syfy next month called Defiance. they are doing the show and releasing a video game with it. I beta tested the PC version of the game. not bad and made me look forward to the show :-)

I like Falling Skies a lot also. The movie they made for Firefly was good and ended the show well. Voyager fell off the map and did not end well imo. I would like to see more of the new BSG shows into movies. I caught the last made for the web one.

i wasn't to much of a BSG fan, but i loved the stargate franchise. the last one they tried to follow the BSG model and it wasn't good. sad thing is that by the second season they were fixing it, then it was canceled.

i still will watch the SG reruns and movies.

I had been following Revolution on Hulu when I ran into this gem (language warning) http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-10-dumbest-things-tv-so-far-this-season/I don't think I ever laughed harder at one of their articles, because they hit on almost every one of my complaints about REVOLUTION except one, which changed drastically after this article (maybe a coincidence, but they have millions of readers) - My own complaint didn't make the list, but that's fair - I didn't write the article. - "Charlie" is a non-learner - several episodes involved her failing to realize that the bad guys aren't going to be friendly cause you let them go - they're going to see it as another chance to get you next time. - and then when she DID learn - she learned the heck out of it and became like a rambochick - shocking even her uncle. - anyway - enjoy the article.
